Passage de la Bourse, Commercial gallery in Charleroi, Belgium

The Passage de la Bourse combines Flemish neo-renaissance architecture on its exterior with neoclassical design elements within its covered walkways and storefronts.

Built between 1890 and 1892 by architect Edmond Legraive, this structure replaced the former Capuchin Convent that had served as Charleroi's town hall until 1887.

The three-level gallery displays classical architectural orders with Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian elements beneath an iron-framed glass roof structure.

The passage connects Marchienne and Charleville streets, housing numerous retail establishments including clothing stores, restaurants, pharmacies, and optical services.

In 2014, the passage's original facades and glass roof were preserved and integrated into the new Rive Gauche commercial development project.
